Lentil-fried fish

Let me tell you about another great dish that Per made a couple of nights ago. He ground red lentils until they resembled a fine powder, and used this to coat fillets of firm, white fish. (Cod works very well.) They were then pan-fried, and served with a shrimp spinach risotto. A real treat! I really liked this unique new way to cook fish - it added crunch and texture, and color, too.

Absolutely delicious. In Scotland we have these orange breadcumbs which come in a box which everyone seems to enjoy (full of preservatives and goodness knows what else). Just so tasty and delicious. I think this is going to be a weekly favourite. Anne, do you have a recipe for the risotto?
